CBT Workshop Promoting Mental Health and Wellbeing among Students

Date: Tuesday, 19 May 2026

National Public School, Yeshwanthpur has always been at the forefront of empowering teachers through meaningful workshops and training programmes that enhance their professional skills and strengthen student support systems. It was conducted by CBSE Resource persons Ms Anupa Sreedhar and Ms Roja S Manuballa.
A CBSE Capacity Building Programme Workshop on ‘Promoting Mental Health and Wellbeing among Students’ was conducted for teachers of Classes VI to XII to enhance awareness about students’ emotional and psychological needs. The workshop covered common emotional and behavioural issues in children, probable mental health aberrations and their symptoms and practical strategies teachers can use to support students empathetically. Emphasis was given to creating a safe and supportive school environment and encouraging students to seek help when needed. It was strongly reiterated that diagnosis and treatment must always be left to trained mental health professionals and that such terms should never be used casually or carelessly by teachers or others.
The workshop was highly informative and beneficial for all the participants. The workshop was conducted through interactive activities, case studies and role plays that encouraged teachers to reflect on the emotional needs of their students, their own wellbeing and their families. The sessions inspired teachers to adopt more compassionate and sensitive approaches in addressing the emotional and behavioural concerns of students within the school environment.
